ive got a spare 360 lying around which is flashed with ixtreme 1.4.im wanting to sell it on but want to flash it with 1.51 firmware before i do.ive tried jungle flasher to do this but it will not recognise the drive at all.i have no problems detecting other drives just hitachi ones.im running vista ultimate 32 bit and have a 6421 via sata card.please can anyone help
Try plugging the VIA card into a different slot on your motherboard and also i STRONGLY recommend using Windows XP i was using Vist Ultimate 32 bit and i couldnt get it to work, switched to XP and worked without a hitch.
one other suggestion is to use the Slax method to get it into Mode B and recognized by the OS. I am using XP (without a VIA SATA) and it wouldn't recognize in JF until I put it in Mode B with Slax. Then everything was just fine.

what part of JF doesn't work? The flashing? Restoring your stock f/w? Recognizing the drive?
if you have XP, using the latest .NET framework (3.0 worked fine for me), and are following all the instructions to a "t" (ie., turning on the Xbox and PC at the same time, letting Slax run, once it recognizes using Slax, opening/closing the DVD drive a few times during XP load, etc...), then it might be your SATA connection. I just use the SATA connection off my m/b (Asus), but have never had a problem getting into Mode B and having XP recognize my hitachi drive.
